    Fabulous work, the lens is a pure monster, I have been using the Sigma 1.4 50mm lens to capture portions of the Milky way and the images are just stunning. The level of detail and light it pulls in is phenomenal. Also no vignetting issues but the distortion of light at the outer edges is far more pronounced, although, it is a small price to pay looking at the overall shots. Excellent video and keep up the great work. :-)

    Hi Alyn,
    Thanks for an awesome video.
    You might have heard that 14mm 1.8 GM is coming soon.
    I wish you can do the review on this lens with your astro works.
    Looking forward to seeing that.
    Cheers

    The forgotten landscape lens in Full Frame mode the APS-C lens E 10-18mm F4 OSS (15-27mm) BUT in FF 12-18mm (18mm if you remove the light shield) it also has treads for filters. For night astro at 12mm f/4 you can do a 20-30s image and have the sharpest stars just like the FE 16-35mm f/4 ZA OSS

    I watched 3 years ago! Now Sony has made one! I was alway going wide for years to get more milky path across the sky. But have learned to do panos recently and have found that wide is not good! Would you use the new Sony 14mm f/1.8 for panos?

    Haha. Loved the black hole comment. I've recently picked up the 14-24mm f2.8 and thought exactly the same thing. Bonkers glass. I was half expecting Gandalf to walk in at the start and cover the lens with a blanket.

    Haha - the joke was nice... I'm gonna purchase that lens... as I just got myself the A7sii second hand - it's my first full frame... was looking at lenses off eBay... saw that, decided to look some reviews up... and there, you've convinced me... had not come across your channel before... i just subscribed... even more hyped that I have the same camera as you got those shots with... so thrilled to start my full frame adventures soon. Thanks for the review!

    Whats the BEST lens (even better than the sigma 14mm f1.8) for Milky way timelapse or even shots of orion? Also is Canon T8i or Canon 90D good for astrophotography and if so is the BEST lens able to mount on either of these Canon cameras?

  • @nealgrosskopf
    @nealgrosskopf 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Curious what camera + lens you used to shoot the video of the stars since the Sigma was mounted on the camera you were carrying?

  • @Castropc

    The water coming over the dam is the best. What othert stunning shots have we now been deprived of?

  • @RandomYogi007
    @RandomYogi007 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Holy crap id never watched this vid and i was askin myself ok why were they shooting handheld but it mustve worked out cause they made the video... then i see its my favorite TH-cam astrophotographer, and its from 3 years ago, you look so different 😂 keep it up man you've come a long way (mean that in the best way 😂)

    @tris686 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great vlog again, I don't normally bother commenting on TH-cam but this one felt deserved. I used to struggle stitching the pano's from the 14mm Samyang, but anyway I tried another last time I was shooting astro (too long ago) and I just took more frames and really minimised the movement between each one. The image stitched with so issues, might be worth a try anyway. Keep them coming!

    • @AlynWallace

    @freeandcriticalthinker4431 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Alan another great one. You have told me a few things about this lenses which I agreed with. However I am now looking for potentially another super wide for my A7RIII. I know 14mm that’s super fast is a serious physics challenge so I realize no lens will be without some issues at these specs but backing off slightly to 15mm or even 16mm, is there a super clean lens that you would shoot for Astro work instead of the Sigma. I have the Sigma and while it’s sharp I have struggling with the Coma and soft corners at even 2.8. But yea it’s damn sharp in the center and very bright. Guessing the T Stops are true to the number or maybe even better than the F stops values are.....

    • @AlynWallace

  • @whatmattersmost6725
    @whatmattersmost6725 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Alyn, just found you and now 1 of your subs! I also have the Sony A7RII and A7r4 and got the Nikon 20 mm 1.8 and adapter it to my Sony e mount and this lens is said to be an awesome lens for astro, so when I got it a few months ago and I took a picture of my brick wall and the Nikon to Sony adapter and a few others and noticed on the left or right side it was softer then I think it should be so I took an Nikon to Sony adapter by Metabones and I somehow had 2 of them could see the sides softer, but on the other Metabones Nik-Sony E it was much sharper on the left and right side, so my point is some of the softness and or coma can be the adapter your using, as during normal f8 shooting you would not see that issue. So the adapter can make or brake a good native lens, too bad you did not have a Canon body to first prove the Sigma 14mm 1.8 was really sharp and less coma, then try it on the Sony with the adapter? Great work keep it up! Christopher

  • @uknomad235
    @uknomad235 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just subscribed as you do decent reviews. As a fellow Brit i have noticed that the Sigma 14mm F1.8 is about £300 more expensive in the UK compared to the US! I may buy it when i go there to save a lot of cash. My other choice was the newer Rokinon SP 14mm F 2.4 but i see you haven't done a review of that yet. Have you tried it but not done a video review yet? Currently for my landscape/Astro-Landscape i am either getting one of the two lenses i already mentioned. My other general purpose lens was going to get the Tamron SP 24-70mm F/2.8 Di VC USD to fit my other needs and it has a short telephoto benefit. I should note that i have only just got my first full-frame after upgrading recently to a canon 5D mk.iv
    My total budget is £2000 and i hope to include the Sigma 14 in that but may be swayed to the new rokinon due to its much cheaper price. You seem to know your stuff so what would be your opinion?
    Many Thanks

    • @AlynWallace
      @AlynWallace  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks a lot John :) Haven't tried the new Rokinon yet but I have no doubt it's a brilliant lens. The older 14mm has dominated the landscape astro world for many years and is still a popular choice and I'm hearing good improvements with the newer one. The Sigma is incredible but yeah bit expensive

    It obviously depends on your pulse, but I've noticed I can easily shoot 1/8 exposures handheld with a 50mm lens. When lying very still, I can shoot 1 second. And that's with a film SLR with no stabilisation. According to this and adding the a7S II' IBIS, lack of mirror slap, and low megapixel count, you could probably shoot a few seconds with no problem, without cranking the ISO to an unusable amount.

    Hi Alyn
    Which one is better for Night time lapses- A7ii or A7Sii or A7Rii, I moved from the Canon80D to Sony A7 (rubbish for the night lapses, sold it), and now I cant choose which one is better particular for Milky Way lapses... Also the price is big deal for me A7sii I can buy slightly used for $2000 AUS, A7Rii -$2500Aus and A7II almost brand new only for $900Aus (I'm from Australia). My lapses are Ok and the lens is Samyang 14/2.8 but still not perfect, lot of noise even on 3200 ISO ((( and I decide to buy A7S ii which could help me with the noise problem.

      Not that you suggested it but I would say A7iii :) A7S is best for noise but 12mp is not great for stills.

    Awesome video - been looking for a channel like yours for a while! I also make videos at night (with varying degrees of success!) so it’s good to see another photographer doing it too 👍🏻

    Amazing man! Insane picture quality, what is the white balance setting on your A7SII?

    • @AlynWallace
      @AlynWallace  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Diederik Borren thanks dude. I set a custom balance when I first got the camera, it's at 3300K with a little shift into the magenta. The out of box settings are a bit lacking

  • @simeonkolev1231
    @simeonkolev1231 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think that you can get even better results :). Try this: S-LOG2 PP settings with +2.0 EV compensation manually and Uncompressed RAW.
    I know S-LOG is only for JPEG and video BUT :) on my A7rII there is a visible plus in using this settings for shooting RAW(.ARW) files too.

    • @simeonkolev1231
      @simeonkolev1231 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also for astro shots older firmwares perform much better. I have stopped updating my A7rII after the 3.20 because of the star eater issue.

    • @simeonkolev1231
      @simeonkolev1231 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      PS the last shot was great :)

    • @AlynWallace
      @AlynWallace  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Simeon Kolev thanks Simon! Yes I haven't updated my A7S yet :) I didn't think slog affects RAWs but I'll try it and see, thanks

    • @simeonkolev1231
      @simeonkolev1231 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      You will see that the RAW will be 2 stops underexposed when you activate SLOG. That is why you will have to raise the ISO 2 stops more.

    Enjoyed the video. Question - For your pano, are you using a gimbal? Are you bothering to try to get the nodal point set? The images look great! Really liked the shots from the overflow side! Great job all round. Subbed.

    • @AlynWallace
      @AlynWallace  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dave Burchette thanks a lot Dave. No gimbal or nodal slide but I sometimes use a nodal slide thesedays for bigger panos :)
